ATON AH66T is a multi-zone audio system. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via direct control through the RS232 port on the module. The ATON I/O Server in HSYCO supports the integration of more than one unit within the same HSYCO interface.
Contents
Communication
a DE-9 (often called DB-9) female-male RS-232 straight cable to connect the AH66T COM1 port to the serial port on HSYCO SERVER (female DB9 to RJ45 adaptor is included in AH66T packaging).
RS-232 parameters:
| Baud rate | same as set on the module (115200/57600/38400/19200/9600) |
| Data bits | 8 |
| Stop bit | 1 |
| Parity | none |
| Flow control | none |
ATON Configuration
The ATON module must be configured to enable the communication with HSYCO. Use the ATON SystemWorx tool to modify the configuration. Make sure to specify “ExtControl” as Driver Type of COM Port 1, set the serial communication parameters, and transfer the configuration to the module.

User Interface
Aton Object
The user interface for the Aton multi-room system:
The Aton object is listed in the Project Editor’s new object list only when at least one Aton I/O Server is defined.
Parameters
- server id: the server ID. Supports Redirect variables
- module: module. Supports Redirect variables
- zone: zone number of the Aton multi-room system (max 12 zones). Supports Redirect variables
- position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format
Syntax
(aton <server id>; <module>; <zone>; <position>)
E.g.
(aton serverid; module; zone; x10y20)
UISET Actions
| ID | Attribute | Set to | |
|---|---|---|---|
| connection.label.online | visible | true | when datapoint connection = online |
| false | when datapoint connection = offline | ||
| connection.label.offline | visible | true | when datapoint connection = offline |
| false | when datapoint connection = online | ||
USER Commands
To send a user command to the I/O Server just set the name to the ID of a writable (W) datapoint and the parameter to one of the possible values.
For instance, setting the name of a user button to '<ioserver_id>.z1.power' and its param field to 'flip', will result in having a switch for zone 1. Naming it '<ioserver_id>.z1.mode' with a valid working mode as param (e.g. 'stop' or 'cold') will result in a button for setting the mode of the zone.
